The University of Maryland UMD 3.1.1 (bosTau8) assembly is an update to the previous UMD 3.1 (bosTau6) assembly. UMD 3.1 contained 138 unplaced contigs that were found to be contaminants. These have been suppressed in UMD 3.1.1. For more information, see the "comment" section at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/DAAA00000000.2/.

Search the assembly:

• By position or search term: Use the "position or search term" box to find areas of the genome associated with many different attributes, such as a specific chromosomal coordinate range; mRNA, EST, or STS marker names; or keywords from the GenBank description of an mRNA. More information, including sample queries.
• By gene name: Type a gene name into the "search term" box, choose your gene from the drop-down list, then press "submit" to go directly to the assembly location associated with that gene. More information.
• By track type: Click the "track search" button to find Genome Browser tracks that match specific selection criteria. More information.
